5. No it's not
Her thumb would need to be extended as well in order to make the "L"

6. the thumb had to be out to say "I love you"
She's giving the "Hook 'em Horns" gesture but if you're not familiar with this UT tradition, it looks pretty creepy.

7. Not quite friend
For signing "I love you", you also have to have the thumb extended out to the side. It is the combination of the sign for the letter I and the letter L.

8. No. 'I love you' is thumb out, not folded and tucked.

It was the first sign my grandson gave to me at a time when we thought he would be incapable of speech. I hold it in my heart.

oops, sorry, already noted. I type very s.l.o.w.l.y.

I feel so much better being wrong about that sign! Thank you! Thank you! I am so glad that i posted that..just so i could be wrong...now...well...yep..that is the "horns" then!! They are evil...and even flaunt it! Now correct me again if i am wrong...clearly i am limited on my sign language skills, but isnt the sign language for bullshit...that sign she is doing..along with the other hand under it sort of sweeping out the shit?

15. The Univ of TX mascot is the Longhorn.....
and so the hand gesture represents the mascot (his name is Bevo by the way) and students yell "Hook 'em Horns!" at games. It was never meant for inagurations though.

Basically, it just means your a Texas Longhorn.

14. A Texan would probably say, "There's an outside of Texas?"
I actually thought of Metallica the first time I saw the pic. But I do think a huge number of posters here don't know the "Hook 'em, Horns" thing.

For the record, if you ever went to a Princeton game, you would think that a Nazi rally broke out during the alma mater, because we do this quasi-straight arm salute during it. It's not straight up, but in a picture it looks creepy.

20. More ammo for Alex Jones
You know how this guy just collects all the pictures of famous people giving that 2 horn salute or the "I Love You" salute as "evidence" of Satanists running the world. Heh!
